Use 

For controlling the room temperature in individual rooms and zones that are 

  heated or cooled with 2-pipe fan coil units 

  cooled with a single compressor in DX type equipment 

 

The controller controls 

 a 

3-speed 

fan 

  either a valve actuator in a 2-pipe system, or 

  a 1-stage compressor in DX type equipment 

 

Suitable for use in systems with 

  automatic heating / cooling changeover (RDF210) 

  continuous heating or cooling mode (RDF210) 

  manual heating / cooling changeover (RDF2110.2) 

 

Functions 

  Changeover between heating and cooling mode is either automatic by a QAH11.1 

changeover cable temperature sensor or manually 

  Maintenance of room temperature either with integrated temperature sensor or ex-

ternal room / return air temperature sensor (only with RDF210) 

  Selection of operating mode with the operating mode button 

 

AUTO

 or 

 on the 

controller 

  8 programmable timers for changing over between Normal operation and Energy 

Saving mode 

  3-speed fan control (automatic or manual) 

  Output for 2-position (on / off) valve actuator or 1-stage compressor 

  Optional with infrared remote control (only with RDF210…/IR) 

 

Controller 

Temperature control 

The controller acquires the room temperature via its built-in sensor and maintains the 
setpoint by delivering 2-position valve control commands or compressor output com-
mands. With the RDF210, an external room temperature sensor (QAA32) or external 
return air temperature sensor (QAH11.1) can be used instead. 
The switching differential is 2 K in heating mode and 1 K in cooling mode (adjustable 
via parameters P08 and P09). 

Display  

The display shows the acquired room / return air temperature or the setpoint of the 
current operating mode. This can be selected via parameter P18. Factory setting is 
display of the current room temperature. 
The heating   and cooling 

 symbols on the display show the status of the fan coil. 

This means that the symbols are also shown while the controller operates in the neutral 
zone. 
 
If required, room temperature and setpoint can also be displayed in °F in place of °C by 
changing parameter P17.
